Verdict
Russian Soul is well up to this grade though he doesn't win often enough and has rarely run on ground with give. CAPE OF APPROVAL is penalised for his victory in a Listed contest at Cork when Red Dubawi and Zoola were behind. He's best on soft ground and can concede weight all round. Boston Rocker has been going well and will enjoy the conditions while blinkers may wake up Scream Blue Murder, who looked a very progressive sprinter before a couple of moderate efforts.
